different storylines but if you're looking for something to match Lee Min Ho's conning in LOTBS then you might like TS where Hyun Bin is the MC

Both of these dramas are similar generally. This is because:

· The female lead is from another world
· The female lead hides some things about herself from the male lead.
· The male lead is from an influential/wealthy background.
· The male lead is not interested in others but is sweet and caring with the female lead.

If you liked Legend of the Blue Sea I recommend you watching My Girlfriend is an alien

Both dramas are about a mermaid/merman and human falling in love.
Recommended by aria
Both dramas haven the same elements:
- It's primarily a romance, with very little secondary plots or 'story of the week' plots
- A modern mystery with evil families plus supernatural elements including a reincarnation plot (and of course a serial killer!)
- The hero is a prankster and struggles to do the right thing, but his protective side ultimately wins out
- They both have big budgets and are well produced

I would 100% recommend The Legend of the Blue Sea. The characters had a fun, teasing chemistry, and there was a more 'epic feel' to the romance with the reincarnation plot integrated strongly from the start. The actors are excellent, and the drama sticks with you.

1. Cute main leads with amazing chemistry.
2. Step mother who tricks up the father and son to split for inheritance and kills them with slow poison.
3. Step mom has lover and their endings are same in both drama.

If you loved the mix of romance and fantasy in A Good Day to Be a Dog, you’ll enjoy Legend of the Blue Sea. This drama revolves around a mermaid and a con artist whose lives are connected across time. Like the curse in A Good Day to Be a Dog, the story explores overcoming supernatural obstacles to be with the one you love.

- Both deal with girls who are unfamiliar with the modern world trying to live in it: in LotBS FL is a mermaid, in MFaMR the female lead is a queen of a tribe in a forest
- Both are enjoyable series and have comedic aspects
- Both have male leads that do some undercover bad boy stuff
- Both have oblivious female leads who learn to adapt to the world in a comedic way
- Both have likeable second lead females
- Both have cute chemistry between leads

Both dramas feature "fish out of water" naïve non-human FLs who don't understand the human world. They meet the ML (in bare feet) who is kind hearted (JAF more obviously than TLOTBS) and helps them. In both, the FL can only love/be attached to one man in her lifetime. Both have seaside settings, umbrellas, and a similar tone and feel.

Although not the same language but similar stories exept the male us richer one in legend of the blue sea and the female is the mermaid

Reincarnation fantasy romance where ML comes back in present day very different (personality vs. gender). Both are Korean shows with a similar tone.
Recommended by emeraldarrows
Fantasy romance with one character a mermaid. Historical settings for part or all of the plot. Interesting supporting characters.

Devoting herself to learning everything she needs to know to become a good wife and mother, Jae Yi dutifully prepares for the future. Sadly, destiny has other plans for her future. Four days before her wedding, Jae Yi’s family is murdered. With no one else to blame for the unexpected tragedy, Jae Yi soon finds herself the object of baseless and horrifying accusations.

Bringing the lonely crown prince, Lee Hwan into her life at just the right moment, Jae Yi is saved from a dismal fate, but her salvation comes at a price. Plagued by a mysterious curse, Lee Hwan agrees to help Jae Yi, but only if she agrees to help him break his curse in return.
